Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Travel, Adventure, and Sport From Blackwood's Magazine, Vol. 2 The North-west Passage has been principally explored by Englishmen. The reason of this has been that Franklin, who, in 1845, left England with two vessels, the Erebus and Terror, to pursue that route, was never again heard of; and in consequence, numerous expeditions (for the most part organised by Franklin's widow, Lady Franklin) were sent out from England with the object of discovering the fate of the missing explorer and his companions. As all are aware, the present Admiral Sir F. L. M'Clintock, commander of the steam-yacht Fox, brought home in 1859 indisputable proofs of his countrymen's sad end. Undoubtedly no vessel has yet passed from the North Atlantic to the Pacific Ocean, or round the north coast of America; but, nevertheless, the discovery of this passage has been attributed to Sir R. M'Clure, captain in the English navy. In command of the ship Investigator he took his course through Behring Strait, and followed the American coast until his progress was arrested by ice in long. W. 115. After spending three winters there, he learned that some English vessels (belonging to Belcher's expedition, which from the east had endeavoured to penetrate the North-west Passage) were lying some hundreds of miles from him.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Travel, Adventure, and Sport From Blackwood's Magazine, Vol. 5 During a residence of five years in Hungary, I have had some notable experiences of storms and floods. The first phenomenon of the kind which I witnessed was the remarkable storm of the 26th of June 1875. On that occasion a waterspout burst on the mountains behind Buda, and together with Wind and hail de stroyed a considerable amount of property in the town and neighbourhood, causing also the death of nearly sixty people. The fury of this storm was far exceeded by the catastrophe which occurred on the last night of August 1878, at Miskolcz and Erlau, in the north-east of Hungary.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Travel, Adventure, and Sport, Vol. 1: From 'Blackwood's Magazine' One hint must especially be regarded, which was, to take care, on arrival at the lake, that I did not enter the village of a certain sultan called Mahaya, to whose district Muanza, at the southern extremity of the lake, they directed me to go. This precautionary warning was advanced in consequence of a trick the Sultan had played an Arab, who, after visiting him in a friendly way, was forcibly detained until he paid a ransom for himself; an unjust measure, which the Arabs pointedly advert to as destructive to commercial interests. To lose no time whilst the kirangozi was away - for I had a long business to do in a very short space of time - I intimated to the Shaykh, our Ras-cafila, and the Belooch guards, my intention of taking them with me to the lake, and ordered them to prepare for the journey by a certain date. The Shaykh demurred, saying he would give a definite answer about accompanying me before the time of starting, but subsequently refused (I hear, as one reason), because he did not consider me his chief. I urged that it was as much his duty as mine to go there; and said, unless he changed his present resolution, I should certainly recommend the Government not to pay the gratuity which the consul had promised him on condition that he worked entirely to our satisfaction, in assisting the expedition to carry out the Government's plans.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Travel, Adventure, and Sport From Blackwood's Magazine, Vol. 4 It was very late one evening when I arrived at the little village of Sallenches, in Savoy - then a cluster of the humblest ehdlets, and not as now, since the conflagration, a promising town - very footsore and dusty. At the door of the inn I met old Victor Tairraz, who then kept the Hotel de Londres at Chamouni, and was the father of the three brothers who now conduct it - one as maitre, the second as cook, and the third as head waiter. He hoped when I arrived at Chamouni that I would come to his house; and he gave me a printed card of his prices, with a View of the establishment at the top of it, in which every possible peak of the Mont Blanc chain that could be selected from all points of the compass was collected into one aspect, supposed to be the view from all the bedroom windows of the establish ment - in front, at the back, and on either side. I was annoyed at this card for I could not reconcile, at that golden time, my early dreams of the valley of Chamouni with the ordinary business of a Star-and Garter-like hotel.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Travel, Adventure, and Sport From Blackwood's Magazine, Vol. 6 A 68-pound shot, which had gone lobbing by the Kajar's Cashmere-shawl tent, had on one occasion been picked up, placed on a camel's back, and at once started off to the capital, and eventually submitted to the inspection of the august eyes of the sovereign. When the intelligence reached Teheran that whole regiments had retired en masse without firing a shot - without ever having seen the colour of their enemy's moustaches - some of the general officers and chiefs of tribes were ordered into the presence, and had there received the punishment of the stick: this accomplished, the rapacious Prime Minister laid hands upon them, and lightened them of all their ready money and jewel-hilted daggers. The Persian soldiers, who are not to he surpassed by any troops in the world for their endurance of fatigue, and for the length of their marches through an impoverished country, were, for the want of being led by their officers, after a few engagements, ready for immediate flight at the gleam of a British bayonet. Sir James Outram, hampered by the difficulty of procuring baggage-animals, had been obliged to encamp on the plain near Maharaja: this small town is situated on the right hank of the Hafar Canal.
